Qualifications of Deacons
8 Likewise deacons must be reverent, not double-tongued, anot given to much wine, not greedy for money,
9 holding the1 mystery of the faith with a pure conscience.
10 But let these also first be tested; then let them serve as deacons, being found blameless.
11 Likewise, their wives must be reverent, not1 slanderers, temperate, faithful in all things.
12 Let deacons be the husbands of one wife, ruling their children and their own houses well.
